LM3420M5X-8.4/NOPB

The LM3420 series of controllers are monolithic integrated circuits designed for charging and end-of-charge control for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. The LM3420 is available in an 8.4-V version for one through four cell charger applications.Included in a very small package is an (internally compensated) op amp, a bandgap reference, an NPN output transistor, and voltage setting resistors. The amplifier’s inverting input is externally accessible for loop frequency compensation. The output is an open-emitter NPN transistor capable of driving up to 15 mA of output current into external circuitry.A trimmed precision bandgap reference utilizes temperature drift curvature correction for excellent voltage stability over the operating temperature range. The LM3420 series allows for precision end-of-charge voltage threshold for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. The premium grade LM3420A is available with an initial voltage threshold tolerance of ±0.5%, while the standard grade LM3420 has an initial voltage threshold tolerance of ±1%.The LM3420 is available in a sub-miniature 5-lead surface mount package thus allowing very compact designs.
